[Red Chamber] When I became Grandma Liu

Chapter 54 Lin Ruhai Enters Jia's Mansion, Dai Yuzhang

Lin Ruhai never expected that he hadn't visited anyone in Jia's house for several years, but his three views were severely impacted.

Even if he has had several years of ups and downs in the officialdom, and his rich experience of evading countless open and dark arrows in Yangzhou officialdom, he can't stand it.

First of all, because of Lin Ruhai's deep love for Jia Min and his wife, Jia's mansion took care of Daiyu for several years, so Lin Ruhai had to visit Jia's mansion for reasons of love and reason.

This morning, Lin Ruhai took the housekeeper and several servants with him, carrying a box of bank notes and a cart of rare things, and the group headed for Jia's mansion in a mighty way.

Lin Ruhai originally wanted to enter through the corner gate, but he didn't expect the Jia Mansion to open the gate early. Seeing this situation, Lin Ruhai frowned slightly.

Although Rong Guogong passed away many years ago, because of Jia Mu's presence, the brand of this Duke's mansion has not been changed, so this Jia's mansion is still the standard of a Duke's mansion.The gate of the Duke's Mansion is not just for me, the former Yangzhou patrol salt censor who has not yet been newly appointed, to leave.

"This..." Lin Ruhai was about to evade, but his brother-in-law Jia Zheng involuntarily pulled him in.

"Come on, uncle, come in quickly, it really makes me wait."

"Then quickly bring the things in!" Lin Ruhai then turned and told the housekeeper.I have stepped in, can I come out again?

Lin Ruhai followed Jia Zheng across the bridge, got off the sedan chair in front of Huamen, and walked through Chaoshou corridor and other places. These places are really exquisite, and all of them reveal a prosperous atmosphere.Not seen for many years, this Rongguo Mansion seems to be more prosperous.

It's just that the servants nearby don't show much, but they can see a person sitting or standing gossiping in the distance. Could it be that they think that the masters have never seen it when they are far away?Lin Ruhai was a little puzzled.

After several twists and turns, the group finally arrived at the main courtyard.

Lin Ruhai originally thought that there were only Jia Mu and Jia She's elders or peers inside, but he didn't want to be surrounded by a group of people. After Lin Ruhai took a look, there were many maids and women in the hall standing by to serve him. Thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, even the widowed Li Wan came over.

Lin Ruhai frowned even deeper, if it was a female guest, it would make sense.But no matter what, I am also a male guest, so it's too late to avoid suspicion, so there's no need to call all the girls here, right?I haven't seen you for several years, why is this old lady getting more and more confused?

Today Lin Ruhai really pays attention to everything, doubts every step of the way, and has not returned to Beijing for many years. Could it be that the etiquette of dealing with people in the capital has changed?

Seeing Lin Ruhai coming, Mother Jia was supported by two maids as before, hugged Lin Ruhai, and cried: "When I see my uncle, I think of my poor daughter! Min'er left too early! Leaving my poor son-in-law and Yu'er alone and helpless."

Lin Ruhai was caught off guard by Jia's mother and hugged by Jia's mother, and heard Jia's mother's words. Although he was also seduced to miss his dead wife, but Lin Ruhai, a man of seven feet, could he cry on the spot like others?

Lin Ruhai raised his head and glanced quietly in the bosom that was covered with thick powder. Except for his own Yu'er who was crying sincerely, everyone else looked very sad, but with just one glance, Lin Ruhai saw them twisting hard in private. own hands.As for the two uncles, they lowered their heads in unison, with a sad expression on their faces, wiping the corners of their eyes from time to time, and they seemed to be crying.

Lin Ruhai actually wanted to say: "There's no need to be like this. Daiyu's mother passed away five or six years ago, and I'm already used to it. I can chew the real grief in my heart, and I don't have to really say it."

What's more, the mother-in-law's tears dripped down on his crown and shoulders, and wet the already somewhat flimsy coat, which made Lin Ruhai, who had always paid attention to his appearance, very embarrassed.

Moreover, everyone present was crying, but if he didn't cry, he didn't seem to fit in well.But... I really can't cry!

Lin Ruhai had no choice but to keep his face livid, face with his hands, and pretend that he had shed two tears.But in my heart I want to escape from this place of right and wrong, the Jia family is too disrespectful!

I don't know how long it took for this farce to end. Lin Ruhai was terrified. What he saw along the way, the master is not the master, the maid is not like the maid, and the masters and wives don't know how to behave. Lin Ruhai really can't imagine that Yu'er can be raised in this environment What does it look like.

"No!" Mother Jia was immediately unhappy, and hugged Daiyu next to her into her arms, "Yu'er is doing well in the mansion, so don't leave with my uncle! Yu'er is very happy here."

"Yu'er is not young anymore, I will bring her home, and I will be ready to see her in two years." Lin Ruhai explained, "Besides, it's not like Yu'er won't come back, if you miss Yu'er, Yu'er I can come back and stay for a few days."

That can't be done. Didn't you say anything about Daiyu and Baoyu?If he left now, without the opportunity to get along day and night, wouldn't this relationship fade away?Will Daiyu marry Baoyu in the future?

Mother Jia's little abacus was rattled, how could she agree with Lin Ruhai to take Daiyu away?

"Yu'er doesn't have any sisters to play with in the Lin Mansion. It's lonely to be alone. It's better to be here with these girls. When she gets old, her sisters-in-law and aunts can also help to see each other. In the future, I will One more dowry." Mother Jia rolled her eyes and refused.

"That's not necessary, thank you for your kindness. I have already invited the old lady who was released from the palace to ask for advice. There are other elders in Lin's mansion. It's just a good time to teach Yu'er how to be a housekeeper." How could Lin Ruhai be easily defeated by Jia? mother flicker away

The scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

Undecided for a while, crying is the best way, seeing Jia Mu's eyes reddened, and she wanted to play the emotional card again, Wang Xifeng hurriedly interrupted: "Oh, my ancestors, I know you don't want to part with your sister, but Uncle Lin has been doing this for a few years. I haven't seen my younger sister much, and now that I've finally returned to Beijing, why don't my father and daughter be allowed to stay longer?"

Against the frightening gaze from Mrs. Wang behind her, Wang Xifeng continued to pat Jia Mu on the back, and added embellishment: "The big deal is that my sister will still live in the mansion when my uncle takes another job."

"Yes, yes, yes, Yu'er will still live in the mansion after a while." Lin Ruhai was worthy of being an old fritter in the officialdom, and immediately reacted.

"I am a big man, I know how to raise children, and I will have to rely on you, your ancestor, in the future. Seeing how outstanding your children are, and seeing your overall demeanor, you are the only one in the whole capital who can raise such a child." Excellent kid."

The two worked together so hard that they finally forced back the tears that Jiamu couldn't shed.

After that, Lin Ruhai was still afraid that the people from Jia's mansion would do something wrong again, so he used the excuse of going to the toilet to tell the housekeeper a few words.

Just when Jia's mother opened her mouth to leave a meal, the housekeeper of Lin's house came and said that the king of Beijing had an invitation, so Lin Ruhai took Daiyu back to Lin's house swiftly, unable to pack her luggage.

Once on the sedan chair back home, Lin Ruhai said goodbye to his brother-in-law Jia Zheng with a smile as usual, but his face sank into the water instantly after getting into the carriage.

Daiyu at the side saw her father's face changing, and instinctively felt that her father was unhappy, but with Daiyu's experience, she obviously couldn't understand why Lin Ruhai was angry.

Lin Ruhai stole a glance at the bewildered Daiyu in the carriage, forcibly suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and said silently in his heart: "The child is still young, Yu'er is talented, and there is still time to correct, and there is still time to correct."

Fortunately, Lin Ruhai didn't know that Daiyu and Baoyu lived separately inside and outside the bisha cabinet, separated only by a screen, otherwise he might not know what they are like now?

.......................................

Here in Jia's mansion, Wang Xifeng cleverly comforted her, and Jia's mother felt a little more comfortable.Although she has a granddaughter who is an imperial concubine, Lin Ruhai doesn't help much, and one less helps a lot, so there is no need to be angry at Lin Ruhai's ignorance.

Besides, when the time comes for Yuanchun to point out the marriage, Baoyu won't be able to marry any good woman. She prioritizes Yu'er because of her deceased daughter's affection, but the Lin family treats her like a donkey with good intentions.

It was night, and the maid Zijuan still wanted to light the incense for Daiyu, but Daiyu stopped her: "Take it away, I don't need this tonight." Zijuan was taken aback, put the incense into the sandalwood box, He asked again: "Miss just arrived in a place, what if she is not used to it and can't sleep?"

Daiyu smiled and shook her head: "How can I not get used to it, this is my own home!" Although Daiyu still felt a little sentimental when she was in the Lin Mansion, she was more immersed in the novel experience of the Lin Mansion among.

Here, I am the only little master, the treasure held in the palm of my father, and I am no longer that poor relative who fled from afar.There is not only an independent large courtyard, but also many servants to serve.

For so many years, she was the first one to live in her own house and enjoy the considerate service of the servants of the Lin family. It felt like a dream. Daiyu couldn't bear to sleep, so how could she light those sleep-helping incense?

Zijuan seemed to understand, but she followed her advice, as long as her daughter was happy.However, since the girl has returned to the Lin Mansion, should I mention it to the girl tomorrow and get my deed of prostitution from the Jia Mansion.Zijuan thought about it.

The moonlight slanted on the ground like water, and everything in the world was like a dream. In the quiet night, I don't know how many people have sweet dreams.

Compared with Daiyu's excitement, Lin Ruhai tossed and turned in bed tonight and couldn't sleep.Lin Ruhai claimed to be a person who has seen big wind and waves, but what he saw and heard that day made Lin Ruhai deeply disturbed.

After I returned home, I asked Lin Butler to send some clever and unfamiliar faces to inquire about the news, and personally asked Zijuan Xueyan and others.The two mansions of Rongning and Ningxia can be said to be open to the wind from all sides, and the servants have no gatekeepers. If you give them a little money, those private matters will be as clear as beans poured out of a bamboo tube.

When Butler Lin reported, he glanced at Lin Ruhai after he said a sentence, for fear that the master of the Zi family would be angry, until he saw that Lin Ruhai's expression was normal, he hurriedly finished the next sentence.In the end, Butler Lin lowered his head and looked angry: "Master, Miss is really suffering!"

"En." Lin Ruhai responded lightly, "You go down first!"

The master's reaction was a bit wrong, but it was inconvenient for Butler Lin to say more, so he had to respectfully respond and retreated.

Thinking of the sound of the door being closed, Lin Ruhai suddenly made a "poof", and a mouthful of old blood was vomited out.

Lin Ruhai just woke up like a dream, and hastily wiped it with a handkerchief, but the red is so dazzling!

The author has something to say:

The plot in the last chapter actually exploded with Jun Yunqieqie’s comments, and the reaction of Fulian Jun is also very interesting.

I scratched my head until I was bald, thought over and over, and dug deeper, and found that everyone seems to prefer to watch emotional dramas! (Some Gu: It was originally!)
